Well.... I got another car yesterday.... Let the jokes begin! I bought a 85' Pontiac Fiero.

John.... Before you say a word... You may want to check this article out first This goes for anyone else for that matter that thinks the Fiero is an unsafe car. Put it this way, the Fiero and the Volvo DL tied for first place for the safest small car.

I have always wanted to try my hand at restoring a car, and for some strange reason I have always been drawn to this car. I picked it up dirt cheap, and have a couple grand set aside to start fixing it up.

Mechanically it is in great shape. runs like a top, and has a nice deep rumble. It's only a 6cyl, but sounds like a friggin V8 in a camaro or corvette with the way the dual exhaust is tuned.

Now the fun lies in where to put my 10" touchscreen! I am probably gonna have to do some serious fabricating to the dash and center console to get it the way I want.

So at the upcoming meets, hopefully you will all see it going from the POS that it currently is, into a pretty sweet little ride.

I didn't know you had a Fiero! What year and model? I Wanted to get a GT, but they are really hard to find now. Especially ones that have not already been restored. I am pondering the idea of converting it to a fast back. I am almost certain that I am at least going to put a new front bumper on it, as I like the rounded ones far better than the pointed nose.

I think he just meant his car in general with fixing it up? Anyways, I have never been a fan of that car, but I have seen people do crazy things to it. Someone on the forum did a awesome carpc install in a fiero. What made you go with that car?

lol no sir Ive never had one but knew a friend that did and it was very nice. And yes I ment fixing up your car in general its fun and expensive as we all know... cant ait to see what the finished product will look like.

PS: the meet location has not been updated.

I had just always been interested in that car for some reason, as well as all of the customizing and such that can be done to it.

I did a search, and could not find a thread with a CarPC Fiero install. The only thing I found was a single din motorized screen, with a laptop hidden in the console. Do you have a link by any chance, or remember where you saw it? I am trying to get some ideas on where to put the screen. The center console does not give a lot of room or options.

OMG, My memory is really going.... yea the thread you found is the one. I even commented in it a long time ago. I think my install has me going crazy.
